There is an On|Off setting for AirPlay-receiving in Settings﹥AirPlay and HomeKit﹥, as well as Access settings.


With the wanted settings, you don’t have to do anything on the Apple TV box, to start an AirPlay stream. That is controlled from the sending device, and it will take over the screen, temporarily replacing anything that was on screen.


Use AirPlay to stream video or mirror the screen of your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

If screen mirroring or streaming isn't working on your AirPlay-compatible device - Apple Support

Use AirPlay to stream audio and video on Apple TV - Apple TV user guide - Apple Support


From what device are you trying to AirPlay?
